Imagine, if you were not yourself, yet at the same time you were. Imagine that you had led a completely different life. Maybe you were a soldier, an engineer, a banker, or maybe you did nothing with your life. What if you were born a with a different name, different gender, a different race; what if you were not born at all. Imagine a world where the American Revolution never happened, The Allies fell to the Axis, or the Cold War ended in nuclear annihilation. However, none of these scenarios…

knew that I was going in the right direction but was looking for something that was a little less spiritual and maybe more in the how you live and how you see the world direction. It was during this key point that I was watching my favorite movie The Big Lebowski again and started to wonder about some aspects of the movie so I pulled up the subreddit for the movie which contained a couple of posts about Dudeism so I started to look at it. After a couple of days of looking at it and reading what…

Innovation on this century is going so fast that apparatus just succeed ones after others, and it is in this order that I can bring one of them which the drone or UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). Drones are an association of robotics, aeronautics and electronics. Drones make life insecure and dangerous in the case that his first functions are not really clear and laws applicable on it are not specify. For instance, his function know by many people are: intelligence and tactical support,…

1984 is not an exact prediction of today’s society in my opinion because the people depicted in the novel live far stricter and much more oppressive lives than we do today. Winston even tells us so, “‘Do you begin to see, then, what kind of world we are creating? It is the exact opposite of the stupid hedonistic Utopias that the old reformers imagined. A world of fear and treachery and torment, a world of trampling and being trampled upon, a world which will grow not less but more merciless as…

George Orwell’s dystopic novel 1984 talks about Oceania, a place that has their citizens under government surveillance regarding their actions, talk, emotions, and also manipulating the events of the past. The novel tells the story of Winston Smith, who works for the Ministry of Truth, his job entails with rewriting past historical recollections (i.e. newspapers) so the contents of it are in support of the Party. Winston is good as his job but he secretly hates the Party and hopes to rebel…

In this paper I will analyze the argument of the “Fine-Tuned Universe”, describe what it means, show how an opponent would argue that intelligent design isn’t the best explanation, and also provide my own view on this argument from my theist view. Have you ever wondered how the universe got here? How everything perfectly fell into place, and how you’re here today? The Fine Tuned Universe argument may help you better understand. This argument is a version of the teleological argument, which is…

concerning government control are becoming quite evident in today’s society. In the novel 1984, the main setting is Oceana, a futuristic England. Orwell’s Oceana “portrays a future totalitarian world, ruled by a seemingly, omnipotent tyrant called Big Brother” (Perloff 27). The Party is a controlled government using fear and terror in every aspect in the lives of party members. Oceana closely resembles today’s North Korean society. The North Korean government denies basic freedoms to their…

language of Oceania” readers can infer that Newspeak, the language that every citizen spoke in Oceania, vanished. What caused Newspeak to be discontinued? How did Big Brother fall? Orwell writes this in the tense in which Big Brother was in the past, where people now know how twisted their government use to be. O’Brien tells Winston that “Big Brother is infallible and all-powerful.”(171)…

Every human is born with rights that they will have until they perish. Some of the rights do not stay with them, the rights depend on the choices he or she makes throughout their life. In 1984, the author does not give humans many of those same rights that we take for granted, such as the freedom of privacy. Even the NSA watches over us in some aspects, we can do many things without other people noticing us. Orwell uses the Party taking away the citizens’ rights and freedoms to dehumanize them.…

Imagine growing up in a world where all you feel is fear and hate, where you have no choice but to live in isolated community and be forced to believe in things you would not normally believe in. Imagine living in a community where they start teaching at an early age to hate something by force. For example, in the book 1984 they are forced to grow up believing in what the party wants them to believe in an obeying the rules the isolated community has for the people, just like it has/is occurring…
